Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, combine the chopped rhubarb and halved strawberries.
Sprinkle 0.75 cups of granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons of cornstarch over the fruit mixture. Stir until the fruit is evenly coated. Transfer this mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Add the cold butter cubes to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Pour the milk and vanilla extract over the flour mixture. Stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly thick but spreadable.
Spoon dollops of the batter evenly over the fruit mixture, leaving some gaps for the fruit to bubble through during baking.
If desired, sprinkle the top of the batter with ground cinnamon for an extra layer of flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
